Chest Radiography in Thoracic Polytrauma
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2009Chest radiography is the first-line imaging examination for assessment of thoracic polytrauma, serving to evaluate the extent of injury and facilitate early triage to observation, further imaging, or immediate surgical intervention. The objective of this article is to review the spectrum of injuries that occur in the chest and upper abdomen after blunt

Thoracic radiography of pet macaques in Sulawesi, Indonesia
Journal of Medical Primatology, 2008AbstractThis report describes the results from a study of thoracic radiographs taken on a sample (n = 20) of pet macaque monkeys (Macaca) on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi. We present findings relating to general thoracic health, as well as describe our field methods and outline some of the challenges of conducting thoracic radiography in remote ...

Abdominal and Thoracic Radiography in the Neonate
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2001Plain and contrast radiographic techniques are used infrequently in the diagnostic evaluation of abdominal or thoracic disease in the adult horse because of the animal's large body size and the limited availability and expense of suitable equipment. The importance of radiography as a critical tool has also been lessened through the accessibility of ...

Routine Thoracic Radiography for Psychiatric Inpatients
Psychiatric Services, 1979Screening chest x-rays are routinely obtained for psychiatric as well as other patients. The authors present data that suggest that this practice no longer has a sound medical basis and should be eliminated or modified. It is unlikely that routine radiography of the chest is of practical benefit to adult psychiatric patients who are clinically healthy ...

[Homogenized thoracic radiography].
La Radiologia medica, 1995The major obstacle to optimal radiographic depiction of the chest has always been its anatomical features and, in particular, the considerable difference in X-ray beam attenuation between pulmonary and mediastinal structures. At least 40% of this region cannot be visualized in an optimal way. Therefore, much technological work was done to overcome this

Chest Radiography in Acute Traumatic Rupture of the Thoracic Aorta
Acta Radiologica, 1988Of 123 patients who had suffered blunt trauma to the chest traumatic aortic rupture was eventually confirmed in 61 and absent in 62 patients. The chest radiographs of these patients were examined for 15 signs reported in the literature as being associated with traumatic aortic rupture.

A fresh approach to equine thoracic radiography
In Practice, 2013Equine thoracic radiography is an important diagnostic tool for the evaluation of intrathoracic disease processes. Traditionally, the description of equine pulmonary radiographs has been based on the presence or absence of certain pulmonary patterns, namely bronchial, interstitial, alveolar and vascular patterns that are commonly used in other species.

Basics of thoracic radiography and radiology
2008Thoracic radiography is an essential tool in the investigation of both thoracic and systemic disease. […] Despite the fact that radiography is easy to perform, careful technique is required to ensure that high-quality films are obtained. Poor technique is a common reason for misdiagnosis.

[Digital radiography in thoracic diagnosis].
RoFo : Fortschritte auf dem Gebiete der Rontgenstrahlen und der Nuklearmedizin, 1989Technologies and performance of digital projection radiography are reviewed. Storage phosphor imaging plates can be used in existing diagnostic equipment and the resulting digital images permit the recognition of fine interstitial changes, if a high frequency edge enhancement is performed.
